XRP ETF Inflows Hit $119.6 Million in One Week

XRP-focused exchange-traded products and related crypto investment inflows totaled $119.6 million for the week ending April 11, the strongest weekly figure since December, accounting for more than half of all global crypto fund flows. Europe contributed virtually the entire amount, while US-listed products recorded near-zero daily flows during the period.

Where the inflows went

CoinShares data shows XRP led all digital assets in fund inflows, representing 53% of the global $224 million total. Switzerland alone contributed $157.5 million of the worldwide figure, about five times the $27.5 million attributed to the US.

Seven spot XRP ETFs are listed in the US with combined assets approaching $1 billion. However, US-listed products showed near-zero daily flows throughout the week, indicating that the $119.6 million inflow came primarily from European and international exchange-traded products.

US holdings and institutional involvement

Goldman Sachs is the largest disclosed US institutional XRP ETF holder, with $153.8 million across four funds. Bloomberg analysts cited in the report suggest the position likely reflects trading desk facilitation rather than a direct institutional bet on XRP.

Investor split and regional demand

The analysis highlights a sharp difference between the US and Europe in who holds XRP ETF assets. It states that 84% of US XRP ETF assets are held by retail investors who do not file with the SEC. By comparison, Solana ETFs show 48.8% institutional participation.

European buyers, the report says, are building positions without waiting for the CLARITY Act to clear. It also notes that XRP has fallen for six consecutive months and that March marked the first month of net outflows for XRP ETF products at $31 million, while April erased that entirely in the first week.

Price reaction during the inflow week

During the same week the $119.6 million inflow was confirmed, XRP moved from $1.30 to $1.35, a 3.8% gain. The report characterizes the muted price response as suggesting selling pressure absorbed the inflows.

It also points to a descending trendline that capped resistance near $1.48, with $1.65 and $1.85 identified as next meaningful ceilings if the trendline breaks on volume.

Regulatory catalyst: the CLARITY Act

A survey of 351 institutional investors by Coinbase and EY-Parthenon found that 25% plan to add XRP to their portfolios in 2026. The survey also reported that 65% cited regulatory clarity as the key factor holding them back.

The report says the Senate Banking Committee markup targeted for late April is the most direct near-term catalyst for closing that gap. It adds that as the bill approaches its markup window and the classification of XRP as a digital commodity by the SEC and CFTC is formalized into law, the institutional allocation that has been “intent on paper” could translate into capital deployment.
